Abstract

An image display system includes a sensor that detects a motion of a user, displays that display an image in a video space, and a processor that determines, based on output of the sensor, whether a first motion of the user after a stimulus to the tactile sense of the user is presented satisfies a first condition. The processor displays a first image in a first region of the video space with the displays when it is determined that the first motion satisfies the first condition.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An image display method comprising:
 presenting a stimulus to a tactile sense of a user;   determining, based on output of at least one sensor that detects a motion of the user, whether a first motion of the user after the stimulus is presented satisfies a first condition; and   displaying a first image in a first region of a video space with at least one display when it is determined that the first motion satisfies the first condition.   
     
     
         2 . The image display method according to  claim 1 , wherein the first condition is at least one of the user directing a face of the user in a direction of the first region and the user visually recognizing an image displayed in the first region. 
     
     
         3 . The image display method according to  claim 1 , wherein the presenting the stimulus includes at least one of:
 moving air in the video space with a blower;   bringing a first object in the video space into contact with the user with the blower;   vibrating a second object in contact with the user with a vibrator; and   bringing a third object in the video space into contact with the user with a driver.   
     
     
         4 . The image display method according to  claim 3 , wherein the blower includes a vortex ring generator that generates a vortex ring. 
     
     
         5 . The image display method according to  claim 1 , wherein the first motion includes at least one of a motion of the user looking around, a motion of the user moving in the video space, and a motion of the user stopping in a specific region in the video space. 
     
     
         6 . The image display method according to  claim 1 , wherein the first image includes an image that changes from a second image to a third image. 
     
     
         7 . The image display method according to  claim 1 , wherein the presenting the stimulus includes presenting the stimulus at a first degree as a degree of the stimulus, and presenting the stimulus at a second degree higher than the first degree when it is determined that the first motion does not satisfy the first condition. 
     
     
         8 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program, the program causing a computer to execute:
 determining, based on output of at least one sensor that detects a motion of a user, whether a first motion of the user after a stimulus to a tactile sense of the user is presented satisfies a first condition; and   causing at least one display to display a first image in a first region of a video space when it is determined that the first motion satisfies the first condition.   
     
     
         9 . An image display system comprising:
 at least one sensor configured to detect a motion of a user;   at least one display configured to display an image in a video space; and   a processor configured to execute:
 determining, based on output of the at least one sensor, whether a first motion of the user after a stimulus to a tactile sense of the user is presented satisfies a first condition; and 
 causing the at least one display to display a first image in a first region of the video space when it is determined that the first motion satisfies the first condition.
